Lyrics
PEOPLE ALWAYS THINK I'M HER GRANDPA
by Pete Gallatin and Janice Hopkins 2007
It was at a low point in our marriage
Out that night; not where I should have been
Back at home, said, "Honey, come on, let's make up".
Didn't know what I'd be startin' then
A few weeks later, sitting on the sofa
She wondered,"Am I gainin' weight again"?
Something clicked; we both went,"Uh, Oh!"...
The stick turned blue then the roof fell in
Chorus:
People Always Think I'm Her Grandpa
When they see my hair is turnin' gray
But when I tuck her in at night; and she says," I love you, Daddy".
Man, I wouldn't have it any other way
People Always Think I'm Her Grandpa
But, she makes me feel younger everyday
Said, "Hon, this is more than I can handle".
"Two in college, and you say this today"
She said, "Shut your mouth; just start thinkin'".
"You're gonna be a Daddy, anyway".
Later on, we got the kids together
Asked if they could help from time to time
Our youngest one said, " I won't push the stroller".
"'Cause strangers will be thinkin' that she's mine".
Repeat Chorus:
Bridge:
Now, I'm a fairly odd parent at her grade school
Her friends all think I'm cool and lots of fun
But when their parents hear that she's my daughter
They ask, "Same wife or a second one"?
Repeat Chorus:
Tag:
I may look just like her Grandpa
But, she calls me Daddy everyday
